Intuition

Cultivating inner knowing

A question currently animating me about the inner life/spirit is:

How can I maintain my inner peace that I always had living in the calm countryside, when now living in an intimidating and bustling city?

A question currently animating me about the outer world/universe/multiverse is:

How to bring people from caring about something to acting about something.

A moment I noticed my inner light kindled this month was:

When doing some light building work, passer-by's stopped to show curiosity in my project repurposing pallets to build a fence. They offered words of encouragement and some useful advice, this was one of the first spontaneous interactions I had in a city where this is uncommon.

A moment I noticed my inner light dwindled this month was:

Eating most meals alone, what was originally excitement of trying new cooking shifted into most meals being a challenge. Made me realise how lucky I am to have had most meals in the past surrounded by people.

Courage

Aligning action

Assumptions I'm examining right now are:

Impact

October 12, 2025

I originally assumed:

I used to think that the bigger positive impact the better, and that small acts mattered less.

October 12, 2025

These assumptions are changing:

Now I sense... that small impacts can be the root of bigger collective change.

A moment I stepped out of my comfort zone this month was:

Joining a group of people for a hangout, they had been a solid friend group for a long time and I was a bit of an outsider and didn't want to impose to much presence, however speaking to individuals I met lovely interesting people who I will meet up with again.

Compassion

Engaged Empathy

Something that is helping me build trusting relationships here is:

Coinciding with people in breakout rooms, once I've been in a room with a person a couple of times I feel like I know them a lot more personally than before.

When I first got off the train in Scotland I immediately heard a familiar voice, I turned around to look for my friend. It took me a second to realise I was in Scotland and everybody spoke with a funny Scottish accent, not just him.

During the weekend I stayed with him I got a glimpse of his daily life and a cool tour of his Uni. We managed to fit in a small hike despite the crazy winds from the storm that coincided with my visit!
